Union Minister Pralhad Joshi has strongly countered Karnataka Minister Arshad over allegations of excessive ethanol blending in petrol, terming the claims a classic case of choosing sensationalism over responsible governance. Refuting assertions that petrol in the state contained 26 to 31 per cent ethanol, Joshi asserted that extensive official testing conducted by Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) found all fuel samples fully compliant with the prescribed 19 to 21 per cent E20 standards. Instead of creating alarm through unverified claims of 26

Smriti Mandhana To Lead Defending Champions Maharashtra In Senior Womens T20 Super League
Gujarat College Cricket Ground: India skipper Smriti Mandhana will captain defending champions Maharashtra in the Super League stage of the Senior Womens T20 Trophy, with Tejal Hasabnis named as her vice-captain in a 16-member squad announced by the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) on Monday. Smriti was unavailable for the league stage of the competition due to her leading India to white-ball series wins over Zimbabwe at home last month. After taking a short break post the completion of the series against Zimbabwe, Smriti will be back to state duties and help Maharashtra retain the title they won last season. Experienced campaigners such as Devika Vaidya, Anuja Patil, Mukta Magre and Gautami Naik are present, while the specialist wicketkeepers are Shivali Shinde and Damini Bankar. The eight sides that made the Super League have been divided into two groups of four. Maharashtra have been drawn in Group B alongside Andhra, Railways and Mumbai, while Karnataka, Baroda, Vidarbha and Delhi form Group A. All matches of the Super League stage will be held in Ahmedabad, with the Gujarat College Cricket Ground A and Ground B of the Narendra Modi Stadium as the venues. Maharashtra will commence their Super League campaign against Andhra in the 9 a.m. fixture at the Gujarat College Cricket Ground A on November 14. They will then face heavyweights Railways at the Narendra Modi Stadium Ground B at 11 a.m. on November 16. But undoubtedly the most keenly awaited clash for Maharashtra will be against Mumbai at the Gujarat College Cricket Ground A at 1.30 p.m. on November 18. Mumbai, who are expected to be led by India batter Jemimah Rodrigues, start their campaign against Railways on November 14 and play Andhra on November 16 before meeting Maharashtra. With each team playing only three games, the margin for error is thin. Only the two group toppers will progress, and they will square off in the final to be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium Ground B on November 20. Mumbai, who are expected to be led by India batter Jemimah Rodrigues, start their campaign against Railways on November 14 and play Andhra on November 16 before meeting Maharashtra.

Bengaluru mass murder case: Police search Shiradi Ghat forest for two more bodies
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 9 (IANS) Police teams have launched a search operation in the dense forest region of Shiradi Ghat spread across Karnataka's Hassan and Mangaluru districts for the bodies of two more victims in the alleged seven-member family murder case, based on the information provided by the accused, Indushekar. The police team, accompanied by the accused, reached Shiradi Ghat on Monday and began searching for the bodies of his brother-in-law Shankar and sister-in-law Nalini. Police have so far recovered five bodies, including that of a 10-year-old boy, while the search for the remaining two victims is continuing. According to the police, the bodies of Indushekar's wife Sunitha and mother-in-law Roopavathi were traced near Tamil Nadu's Salem. The bodies of his brother-in-law Shivakumar and sister-in-law Divya were recovered from two locations in the gorges beside the road at Chamundi Hills in Mysuru. The body of 10-year-old Puneeth was found near Nandi Hills on the outskirts of Bengaluru. At Chamundi Hills, one body was found close to the roadside, while the other had fallen into a deep gorge. Both bodies were retrieved and sent for a post-mortem examination. Police said the accused had selected a viewpoint along the road to dispose of the bodies. The stretch witnesses heavy two-way traffic every day, and parking is prohibited there. However, space is provided for vehicles during emergencies. Warning boards have been installed, stating that a fine of up to Rs 1,000 would be imposed for unauthorised parking and entering the forest area. Meanwhile, investigators have found that Indushekar allegedly planned the murders in advance and procured materials required for carrying them out from shops in the surrounding areas. He had purchased packing materials, adhesive tape, chemicals, and plastic gunny bags from shops at the Yeshwanthpur RMC Yard. The chemicals were allegedly used to remove bloodstains after the murders. Police have collected CCTV footage from the shops and other locations as part of the investigation. They have examined around 200 CCTV recordings and are now focusing on footage between October 14 and November 3 to establish the accused's movements and the sequence of events. Indushekar, also known as Indu Shekar or Sekar, was arrested by the Rajajinagar police for the alleged murders of seven members of his wife's family. The victims include his wife Sunitha, mother-in-law Roopavathi, brothers-in-law Shivakumar and Shankar, sisters-in-law Divya and Nalini, and Puneeth, the son of Shankar. The murders are suspected to have taken place over a period of around 20 days, between October 14 and November 3. Investigators suspect that the accused brought his relatives to his house in the Rajajinagar-Bhashyam Circle area on the pretext of family gatherings before allegedly killing them and transporting their bodies to different locations. Police are also investigating the alleged role of the accused's 17-year-old daughter in the case. A 10-year-old boy reportedly survived the incident. The investigation is continuing, with police teams searching for the remaining two bodies at Shiradi Ghat and examining CCTV footage and other evidence to establish the sequence of the alleged murders.

Priyank Kharge neglecting Ktaka, busy with Kerala political campaigning: BJP
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 9 (IANS) BJP State President and MLA B.Y. Vijayendra on Monday accused Karnataka Home Minister Priyank Kharge of neglecting mounting law-and-order concerns in the state and travelling to Kerala to allegedly spread false narratives and make political statements before a Muslim Youth League audience. Vijayendra also shared a video of Priyank Kharge's speech. In a statement, Vijayendra questioned the Home Minister's priorities, citing the delivery of knives to the official residence of Dalit Opposition Leader Chalavadi Narayanaswamy, the alleged sting operation targeting a former Chief Minister and serious concerns over police accountability. He said these incidents required the immediate attention of the Home Minister. However, Priyank Kharge appeared more interested in playing judge, jury and executioner than discharging the responsibilities of his constitutional office, Vijayendra alleged. He also criticised the Home Minister for promising at a political rally in Kerala that those accused in the Gauri Lankesh and M.M. Kalburgi murder cases would be put behind bars within six months. Vijayendra said such statements raised serious questions about the Home Minister's respect for judicial independence, pointing out that trials and decisions on the guilt of accused persons were the responsibility of courts and should not be influenced by political pronouncements at campaign platforms. Referring to the murders of journalist Gauri Lankesh and scholar M.M. Kalburgi in 2017 and 2015, respectively, Vijayendra said both incidents had taken place when the Congress was in power in Karnataka. The same Congress that failed to prevent these heinous murders now wants to lecture others on justice and accountability, he said. Questioning the Congress government's handling of law and order, Vijayendra asked Priyank Kharge to answer for the failures of his own party in Karnataka before pointing fingers at others and delivering political sermons in Kerala. He further maintained that the Home Minister should concentrate on addressing the state's security concerns rather than making political statements outside Karnataka. Justice cannot be a political weapon, and the Home Minister's office is not a platform for settling political scores, Vijayendra said.

Ktaka govt committed to protect all religions: Shivakumar
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 9 (IANS) Karnataka Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on Monday said the government stands as the voice of minority communities and is committed to protecting their interests while ensuring equal respect and security for all religions within the constitutional framework. He announced that a separate meeting would be convened next week to hear and address the issues faced by minority religious communities, besides providing additional grants to support the activities of the Karnataka Urdu Academy. Speaking after inaugurating the annual awards presentation, book release and 'Jashn-e-Urdu' programme organised by the Karnataka Urdu Academy at Puttanna Chetty Town Hall in Bengaluru, Shivakumar said consultations would be held with leaders and legislators belonging to various minority communities, including Christians, Muslims, Jains and Buddhists. The views and grievances of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe legislators will also be heard. We are organising these meetings to understand the issues and find solutions, he said. He said fulfilling the promises made in the election manifesto and commitments given to different communities on various occasions was the government's responsibility. Our objective is to resolve issues without hurting anyone's sentiments and by respecting the feelings of all communities. We will protect the rights and dignity guaranteed under the Constitution, he added. Stating that the government had discussed the need for additional grants to the Urdu Academy with the concerned ministers, Shivakumar said the requirements of the academy would be examined and necessary assistance provided. The government will extend its support to the growth of Urdu language, literature and culture, he said. Referring to the importance of the Minorities Welfare Department, the Chief Minister said differences in opinion among certain sections should not become a reason to discontinue the department. Some people may not have faith in minority communities. However, just because others do not have faith, we cannot shut down the department. Our government is committed to protecting the interests of minorities and raising its voice on their behalf. We will ensure that no community faces injustice, he said. Emphasising the government's commitment to constitutional values, Shivakumar said the government would function strictly within the framework of the Constitution. Rahul Gandhi and all of us took our oath of office holding the Constitution in our hands. Protecting the Constitution and upholding its principles by ensuring equal respect and protection for all castes and religions is our commitment, he said. Describing Urdu as a language that transcends religious and community boundaries, Shivakumar said it was not confined to any particular community but was a language of the heart. Urdu has the power to touch people's hearts through literature, poetry and shayari. The language has no boundaries and has earned recognition across the world. Everyone should respect the Urdu language and culture, he said. Recalling his participation in an Urdu shayari programme during the Mysuru Dasara celebrations, he said he had spent nearly an hour listening to poetry and found the experience enriching. Interestingly, the programme was attended not only by Muslims but also by people belonging to Jain and Brahmin communities, Kannadigas and Hindi-speaking people. People from different religions and linguistic backgrounds listened to Urdu shayari with great interest. This is an excellent example of how language can bring people together, he said. He stressed that knowledge should be respected irrespective of the language in which it was expressed and cautioned against showing disrespect towards any language, including English. Language is a medium of communication. Everyone should love and respect their mother tongue and understand the importance of their mother and mother tongue, he said. 'Let us unite people like a needle, not divide them like scissors' Calling for harmony among communities, Shivakumar said human emotions were the same despite differences in languages. Our caste is humanity, and our religion is humanity. Iron can be used to make both scissors and needles. We do not need to do the work of scissors that cut things apart. Instead, let us work like needles that stitch things together. Our government and party will work to unite society. We do not want to divide people, he said. The Chief Minister also congratulated 20 achievers who were honoured for their contributions to Urdu language, literature and culture. He appreciated the academy's efforts to promote Urdu through various programmes and initiatives.

50 pc concession in regularisation fees for unauthorised houses on BDA land: Shivakumar
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 9 (IANS) Karnataka Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on Monday announced a 50 per cent reduction in regularisation fees for unauthorised buildings constructed on land acquired by the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) before July 10, 2008, providing relief to nearly one lakh property owners. He said the government had already issued a notification for regularising such buildings and decided to offer a 50 per cent concession on the fees fixed by the previous government. Addressing a press conference after chairing a review meeting on BDA projects at the authority's office in Bengaluru, Shivakumar said several new development initiatives had been planned to mark the BDA's 50th anniversary, including the provision of land guarantees to property owners without proper ownership documents. The facility has already been introduced through an amendment to Section 38(D) of the Act. Applications can be submitted before December 17, 2026. Those eligible must apply within the stipulated period and make use of the opportunity. If the facility is not availed of within the two years, the buildings constructed on BDA land will be cleared, he said. He said the previous government had introduced the provision to provide property rights to nearly one lakh owners who had constructed houses before 2008 and had fixed the regularisation rates in 2021. However, as the fees were high, only around 600 people had submitted applications. Considering the response, we have reduced the fees by 50 per cent and provided another opportunity. The government has introduced this facility to ensure clean administration through Clean BDA and provide transparent governance to Bengaluru residents, he said. Explaining the revised fee structure, Shivakumar said that, excluding corner sites, properties measuring up to 20x30 feet would be charged five per cent of the prevailing guidance value. For sites measuring above 20x30 feet and up to 30x40 feet, the fee would be 12.5 per cent; above 30x40 feet and up to 40x60 feet, 20 per cent; and above 40x60 feet and up to 50x80 feet, 25 per cent of the guidance value. He said the revised rates were 50 per cent lower than those fixed by the previous government and urged eligible property owners to submit applications along with the required documents within the stipulated deadline. The Chief Minister said the BDA had initiated the process of allotting 30x40 feet sites for every acre of land voluntarily surrendered without litigation by landowners in areas including Kempegowda Layout and other locations. The process of providing sites as a special incentive has been pending since 2014. Applications have to be submitted under the provisions of the 1989 Act, following which the price will be determined. As a mark of gratitude to farmers who have given their land, we have established a Wall of Gratitude. This is the first such initiative in the history of the country, he said. He also said that allotment of sites to farmers who had surrendered land for the Shivaram Karanth Layout had been completed transparently in a single day, which was a first in the history of the BDA. Shivakumar said the BDA had decided to allot marginal land available behind or adjacent to sites already allotted by the authority. Beneficiaries interested in acquiring such marginal land can submit applications before December 17, 2026. The law permits allotment of such additional land measuring up to 600 square feet, and eligible site owners can avail themselves of the facility, he said. To facilitate property owners whose lease periods have expired, the BDA will organise a Clean Sale Deed Mela to register absolute sale deeds. Shivakumar said BDA sites are generally allotted with a lease period of 10 years. After the completion of the lease period, beneficiaries are required to submit the necessary documents and obtain an absolute sale deed for their properties. However, due to various reasons, nearly 20,000 allottees have not obtained absolute sale deeds despite the expiry of their lease periods. To facilitate these allottees, we are organising a Clean Sale Deed Mela. Applications along with the necessary property documents can be submitted before December 17, 2026. The BDA will take steps to register the absolute sale deeds within 60 days of receiving the applications, subject to the applicable rules, he said. Marking the authority's 50th anniversary, the government has also drawn up plans to construct a well-equipped, multi-purpose BDA building spread across one lakh square feet, Shivakumar added.

With over 2.62 lakh startups, India ranks among worlds top 3
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 9 (IANS) The National Entrepreneurship Day, observed on November 9, highlights the growing role of entrepreneurship in India as the country has become the worlds third-largest startup ecosystem with over 2.62 lakh government-recognised startups that are creating employment and expanding opportunities for youth, according to an official statement issued on Monday. The government has recognised over 55,200 startups during FY 2025-26- the highest number of startups recognised in a single year since 2016. The shift from job seekers to job creators reflects Indias growing entrepreneurial spirit, the statement said. Startups have been able to create more than 25 lakh jobs up to October 2026. The number of startups recognised increased by 51.6 per cent year-on-year in FY 2025-26 compared to FY 2024-25, while direct jobs created rose by 36.1 per cent during the same period, according to the statement. Besides, more than 1.07 lakh recognised startups have at least one woman director or partner, accounting for around 48 per cent of total recognised startups as on March 2026. Recognising the importance of entrepreneurship in Indias development journey, the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship was established on November 9, 2014 and the day is observed as National Entrepreneurship Day. Government initiatives such as Startup India, Fund of Funds for Startups, CGSS, SISFS, Atal Innovation Mission, and the Prime Minister's Employment Generation Programme (PMEGP) support innovation, access to finance, mentorship and enterprise creation. Nearly half of recognised startups originate from Tier-II and Tier-III cities, alongside expanding rural entrepreneurship, which reflects the inclusive economic growth that is taking place in the country. India has made significant strides in building a supportive environment for aspiring entrepreneurs. This progress holds particular significance for a nation where nearly 65 per cent of the population is under 35. Recognising the potential of this demographic dividend, the government has undertaken a range of initiatives to empower young Indians across fields including entrepreneurship. Notably, startups are present across all States and Union Territories. Maharashtra, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and Gujarat have emerged as leading regions in terms of the number of recognised startups and direct employment generation as on March 31, 2026. Through the governments policy support and innovation-focused initiatives, easier access to finance, and digital platforms, entrepreneurship continues to expand across India.
